a successful attack could bring commerce to a halt. our financial markets to their knees. it could also escalate into a war in cyberspace for even -- or even a shooting war. to defend against these serious threats, particularly those that involve national security, there needs to be an exchange of information between the public and the private sectors. of course, allowing the government and industry to share information must be done with sufficient safeguards, so any legislation authorizing such sharing needs to strike a balance between privacy and civil liberties protections. now, i believe the bill's authors have achieved such a balance. i recognize that it's often difficult to find consensus on how to defend our nation from security threats. sometimes that is because we can't agree on the nature of our vulnerabilities and in what priority to address them, and unfortunately sometimes congress is too polarized to act until after a crisis occurs. but, madam president, in the case of cybersecurity, we already know our nation's computer networks are increasingly vulnerable.
